Here's another reason I wish I had an android phone. I found this freebie for you. This time, though, us non-android owners can at least try it out and play it on the Amazon Cloud! (See below) |

Either the board game or this app would also be great for homeschooling, I think.
Here's more info on the portable one according to Amazon, and the link for you to get yours:
Product Description
Boggle is one of the most-beloved word games ever produced. This Boggle clone brings the same basic concept to your Android phone. Simply tap on the letters to create words--the longer the word, the more points you score. You also get extra points for using less-common letters such as V, K, X, Q, and Z.
If you make a mistake it's easy to backtrack and start again. All games are untimed, so you don't have to feel pressured (although you can always use an external clock to limit your session). At any point during the game you can click on the settings to see a list of the words you've found and their point totals.

What's new in version 1.4
- Features coming soon include a high scores table, a timed mode, and online play against friends.
Clicking the “Test drive now” button launches a copy of this app on Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2), a web service that provides on-demand compute capacity in the cloud for developers. When you interact with the simulated phone using your mouse and keyboard, we send those inputs over the Internet to the app running on Amazon EC2 — just like your mobile device would send a finger tap to the app. Our servers then send the video and audio output from the app back to your computer. All this happens in real time, allowing you to explore the features of the app as if it were running on your mobile device.
Here are some other fun Word Games for all ages. Some are free and some aren't:
